May the peace of Christ be with you,

Thank you to all the staff and parishioners who

helped with the Unbound: Freedom in Christ

conference this past weekend. Many people who

attended have received significant spiritual healing

from the Lord, and a deeper awareness of how much

God the Father loves them. We have established

prayer teams in our diocese who are available to

pray with anyone who would like to experience

greater freedom in their lives from resentment,

unforgiveness, anger, fear, self-judgment,

hopelessness, etc. The gospel message of Jesus is: “I

have come that you may know the truth, and the

truth will set you free.” The truth means knowing

who we are in the eyes of God the Father and his

plan for our salvation and healing.

October is a month of celebrations of well-known

saints. It begins with the memorial of St. Therese of

the Child Jesus on October 1, followed by the

Guardian Angels on October 2. October 4 is the

memorial of St. Francis of Assisi. October 9 is the

memorial of St. Denis, the first bishop of Paris,

France, whose relics were saved in the great fire that

burned at Notre Dame Church recently. St. Pope

John XXIII is commemorated on October 11 and St.

Teresa of Avila on October 15. October 16 is the

memorial of St. Margaret Mary Alacoque who had

the visions of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and brought

to us the first Friday devotions. October 17 is the

memorial of St. Ignatius of Antioch, followed by the

feast of St. Luke on the 18th

, and the North American

Martyrs on the 19th

. St. Pope John Paul II has a

memorial on October 22, followed by St. John of

Capistrano on the 23rd

. The month ends with the

Feast of the Apostles Simon and Jude on October 28.

In the discussion on the Seventh Commandment, we

come to the sins against the commandment that

involve a lack of respect for the goods of others.

Theft is taking the property of another against the

reasonable will of the owner. “There is no theft if

consent can be presumed or if refusal is contrary to

reason and the universal destination of goods,” for

example if someone is starving to death and the only

way to obtain food is by taking it. Any form of

unjust taking and keeping the property of others is

against the seventh commandment, including

“deliberate retention of goods lent or of objects lost,

business fraud, paying unjust wages, forcing up

prices by taking advantage of the ignorance or

hardship of another.” Also morally wrong are

corruption or bribery, taking for personal use the

common goods of a business, such as paper or office

supplies, work poorly done, tax evasion, forgery of

checks and invoices, excessive expense and waste.

Willfully damaging private or public property is

contrary to the moral law and requires reparation

(Catechism of the Catholic Church #2408-2409).

In next Sunday’s gospel, Luke 17:11-19, Jesus heals

ten people afflicted with leprosy. While they are on

the way to the priests to show them their condition,

they realize that they have been healed. Only one of

the ten, a Samaritan, comes back to thank Jesus for

the healing. Jesus says to him, “Stand up and go;

your faith has saved you.” There are many times

where we ask something from God in prayer, but do

we say a prayer of thanksgiving just as often when

our prayers are answered? The word salvation comes

from the Latin word meaning healing or being made

whole. The desire of Jesus is for our salvation or the

complete healing of our souls and bodies, including

restoration of the relationships that have been lost.

Resurrection is the ultimate healing which includes

bodily healing, emotional healing, intellectual or

psychological healing, healing of relationships with

others, and spiritual healing. We pray for this grace

for ourselves and our family members and

parishioners.

God Bless you,

Fr. Andrew Beerman
